I had one. It sucked. It was hard to play games with and basically pointless. I remember it was bullshit like you had to lift your left pinkie to make Mario run and shit like that.

This trailer really isn't very good. Needs to show a lot more video game stuff.

Ghostbusters is such an awesome movie.

QB Matt Ryan, Atl QB - I expect a HUGE year out of him, I wanted him in both my leagues but could didnt get him. I also think Julio has a Megatron like year.
RB Adrian Peterson, Min RB - Depending on where you got him, that could be a good pick, but I dont expect much out of him.
WR DeSean Jackson, Phi WR - I got him in my office leauge, I think he bounces back.
K Rob Bironas, Ten K - Love this guy, I got him in my big money league. Money from 50+
BE Matt Schaub, Hou QB - My starter in my big money league. I think he stays healthy finally and gets big money in the offseason.

Overall, your teams is realy solid. You cant go wrong with Ray Rice and Gronk being on your team.

I got Peterson in the 3rd round I believe. Took Rice in the first, Ryan I got in the 4th round and Shaub in like the 6th. 12 team league but we had a couple guys picking some wierd picks. The guy with the 6th pick took Matt Forte and Brees was still available by then.

I took the approach to wait on QB's until I had a good RB or two, and a good WR or TE to build off of since Running Backs were thin this year and QB was surprisingly deep.

Miguel Torres released again from UFC. He will be fighting in Indiana. They will be building a card around him. Brace yourself Scientist.

That's an interesting article, especially the part about the UFC handing him his walking papers "last week," because I read about him getting cut several weeks ago. Didn't PP post something about it?

[edman5555]

Yeah I think he did. Strange, he must have done something stupid again. Anyways, the fights are in Indiana.

When I was a kid I seriously thought The Wizard was like the best movie ever. Every time I watched it it inspired me to go out and buy a bunch of Nintendo shit.

That movie was nothing but one long Nintendo commercial. Ingenious, really.

I always hated the inaccuracies. Like he plays Double Dragon at the gas station for 30 seconds, but somehow makes it to the end of the 3rd level, and "you got 50,000 on Double Dragon!". Whatever that means.

And the power glove blows Zak, we all wanted it, but we didn't miss out on much.

I was never too concerned about any inaccurate depiction of video games.

It's interesting you bring up the "50,000 on Double Dragon" thing because throughout my entire video game playing life I have NEVER given a shit about points and I've always assumed that no one else does either. That died with Galaga.

As for the Power Glove, I took mine back to Target. I even remember the day even though I was like 6.

Yeah, I was the same way. I would judge myself by how far I got in the game, not how many "points" I got.

[SPX]

I think that's the normal way. Points only matter if you want to get ranked by Twin Galaxies.

Speaking of which, anyone here seen The King of Kong?

[SPX]

Is it just me or is the idea of Tyler Perry in an action movie fucking crazy?

[SPX]

Man, this looks so pimp. The final result is totally believable.

Is that yet another front kick knockout?
